Great Coverage!

So glad we have a policy in place for our Chocolate Lab Guinness. He's still a pup (1.5 yrs) and is really good and gobbling down things he shouldn't. He recently swallowed a 4 inch piece of bully stick and vomitted it out later but it left him with continued vomitting and choking. We took him to the vet to verify he had no other obstructions or damage to his digestive track. Pet's Best covered us within days of our claim!

First beer bill submitted, first bill paid.

No complaints so far. My Vizsla had a bump on his back removed and Pets Vest covered as expected. The only reason I've given an 8 instead of 10 is because they raised my rate $25 after first year.

Pets Best is the best!

My dog has severe allergies and has been prescribed Apoquell to help manage them. Pets Best covers 80% of the cost of his meds after the deductible has been met. I usually receive my money within days of submitting the claim.
